Valerie S. (VolunteerVal) -
What Matters in Mayhew by Cassie Dandridge Selleck is a unique - and a bit obscure- novel. To give a flavor, it's self-published by Obstinate Daughters Press - love that name.
Set in a small town in north Florida, it features a quirky set of characters with interesting names, led by Beanie Bradsher. They may seem one dimensional until you get to know them.
Universal themes of human nature (love, money, gossip, prejudice, etc.) are presented in unexpected ways, and more than one detail about the ending ending surprised me. I definitely need to read The Mayhew Junction Historical Society, the sequel, to find a happy ending for several characters.
